Then add your corn and saute till tender. Rinse your black beans and then add them. Followed by 2 cans of roasted tomatoes. Finish with 2 containers of chicken or vegetable stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce and let simmer for about 2 hours.

For guacamole topping, I cut up two avocados, and place in bowl. Sprinkle with sea salt, pepper, and a touch of olive oil. Then squeeze the juice of one lime and the rest of the chopped cilantro. Season to taste.
